101 read from /dev/tty when stdin isn't a terminal judah "Darcs apply doesn't work when reading from a file with interactive mode:
{{{darcs apply -i < foo.dpatch}}}
In that case, Haskeline should read user input from stdin, like `less`.

There's two possible ways to do this:
- Query an environmental flag (e.g. HASKELINE_FORCE_TTY).
- Add a parameter to one of Haskeline's functions.
We need to figure out the Darcs use cases in order to decide which way is better." enhancement closed minor 0.6.3 0.6 fixed
